New Monitor Decision

[trginter]

I'm in the market for a new LCD monitor after my old CRT bit the dust. I've been doing some reading on several boards and came up with 4 choices. I'd like your opinion on which one would be the best deal to pick up right now.

A lot of people have been talking about this monitor. $329.99 at Newegg.

I found a Dell 2007FPW for $330 over at Dell Outlet. Not sure if this is a great deal, but I know a lot of people have the 2007 and love it.

Not much known about the BenQ brand. $294 at the Egg.

Don't know too much about this brand either. It's pretty cheap at $179.99 at Best Buy.

The only thing I'm kind of confused about is resolution. Some of the screens, like the Westinghouse have a Native Resolution and Max Resolution of 1440x900 and others, the Dell, is 1680x1050. Would I even be able to run that Westinghouse at a higher resolution or is it restricted to 1440x900? My video card should be able to push anything thrown at it, it's a 7800GTX. Thanks.

19 inch wide monitors run at 1440 x 900 no higher.
20 inch wide run at 1680x1050.

cancel out the westinghouse, 1440x900 isnt' a popular resolution to game on
if u read the reviews on NE, (i normally don't trust reviews on it) but theres a good amount of reviewer's that aren't too happy with it, i think its worth to spend the $30 more for the viewsonic or dell
its just a matter of which CON you prefer Viewsonic=backlight bleeding about an inch off each corner in widescreen dvd's with black borders ONLY, not noticable in games or desktop. DELL = banding issues? i dunno i never used or seen it
